Maximize value with a financial guarantee

 

By selling to/through Klinkhoff, you:

• Sell with little competition from comparable works available elsewhere which may distract potential buyers (e.g. in November when auction catalogues flood the market with supply!)

• Receive a financial guarantee representing the amount of money you will net.*

• Receive payment upon delivery for the most desirable works.

• eliminate the uncertainty of financial returns in what is a volatile marketplace.

• Eliminate the risk of "buy-ins", which "burn" your works of art.

 

Contact us if you are considering the sale of your fine works of art. Through our network of influential collectors, we act privately to maximize the value of your important paintings and sculpture. Recent auction sales demonstrate the risks of selling without financial assurance. We guarantee the prices for all works of art sold to or through our fixed-price gallery.* Informal valuations for works of interest to us are free, confidential, and represent real current market values.

We invest our own money in the works of art we buy and sell, and thereby demonstrate that our confidence in these works is absolute.  We purchase only works of art we believe our clients are well served to buy. Sellers can maximize value and minimize risk by taking advantage of our tried and proven fixed-price sales. We offer financial guarantees* to sellers of outstanding works of art. At Galerie Walter Klinkhoff, expertise in recognizing authenticity and quality works of art is the result of decades of dealing with artwork by many of Canada's most important artists.

With a view in mind to studying them and sharing their virtues with others in the art community these annual non-selling shows feature an important selection of works by one or another Canadian artist who we admire. We have undertaken this visual and academic study of several of the artists mentioned above as well as Emily Carr, Adrien Hébert, David Milne, M.A. Suzor-Coté and Albert H. Robinson to name only a selection. For more than 35 years Eric Klinkhoff has been preparing the catalogue raisonné of the work of the important Canadian impressionist Maurice Cullen.

 

The Gallery represents a select group of established investment quality contemporary artists, each original in style and painting with the utmost integrity. We are of the opinion that each is making a unique contribution to the field of Canadian art of this generation. We select from them the finest works available and encourage an admiring public to add these artists to their budding collections.
